New icons needed for 2.3.5 (final)

Post by Buginator »

Hello all, for all you icon makers, we can use 3 icons.

They will be used for :
"no-cyborg" & "no-VTOL" icons.
We also need a "kick" icon as well.

The current texture page is located in data/base/images/frontend3.png and we are using the 'strikeout' tank icon.
Image

It needs to be the same size / color as all the other small icons that you see.

If someone could make some good "no-cyborg" & "no-VTOL" & "kick" icons, that would be great!

TIA!
and it ends here.

Pixel(ish) art... I may be able to do that... I will mess around a bit when i get done with work tomorrow, if I get any time, and see if can come up with something acceptable.

Have to admit, this is caused me to look at a cyborg close up for the very fist time.
The transparency is from the original tank slash through button... I can clean it up and make it symmetrical if that would be preferable.

Let me know what you think...

The cyborgs look a bit strange, but they are good.

There's already a cyborg art that could be reused I think. It would add to a more consistent look, but it's just my opinion. :hmm:

You are right. Even though I reeaaaly like n2large0shirt's Icon, it would be better to use the already existing cyborg :!!!:

I forgot about the original icons... I modeled the one I made after the 'heavy' cyborg class... are these Better? I'm glad that Jorzi did the boot, I could not get mine to look right.

I like it, though it doesnt look that much like a VTOL ;)
But since many non-english (and maybe even english) speaking players, don't even know what VTOLS are ("that's a plane, ain't it?") it doesnt matter...

So... I like it! :)

The crossed-out versions need to be tweaked, but otherwise I like all of these latest ones.

I tried to base mine on the Wyvern body style. I don't really like the way it turned out. I may try another that looks more like the Retribution body... Thoughts?

Nice job guys! :3
CinC, the first icon's color doesn't match Wz's color scheme, any reason for it ?

Also, how do you guys want to be credited when we use these icons ?

n2largeshirt, yours look a bit too much like moths. Keep in mind that Warzone VTOLs have triangular wings, and the front wing is larger than the back tail.
